Agent of Nozdormu is aquired when you turn the Head of the Broodlord Lashlayer to Baristolth of the Shifting Sands at Cenarion Hold in Silithus and you get the quest The Path of the Righteous (Elite)http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/quest.h...wquest=8301 You need it to do this quest for the Proxy of Nozdormu.

500 rep each turn-in

A tip for while farming the silithid carapaces, is to go to Hive'Regal. I noticed that the mobs there have a chance to drop one extra carapace, making it possible to loot a total of 4 instead of 3 carapaces. Happy farming!

Unless you are a human you get 500 reputation points per turn-in. So from 0/36000 hated you need 14400 silithid carapace fragments. Remember that after that you still need to make good on 3000 reputation points from hostile as well as unfriendly. So it's 36000 + 3000 + 3000 = 42000 reputation, same as going from neutral to exalted. Total of 16800 carapaces to grind ... only 2400 for me left now.

We made a run in AQ40 a few weeks ago and we didn't even reach the twins, but we finished everything before.

Together with all the marks I delivered, I got more then 10k Honor. So if you have the chance of going into AQ40, it's absolutely not worth it farming the rep in Silithus.

A full run might even give you more then 15k.

Doing just this repeatable quest for reputation to neutral and nothing more, will only last until neutral. You may not turn in any more carapaces for reputation, and you will receive your last proxy as well. Any left over carapaces are just that: LEFT OVER. Sell or give them away.

Baristolth will immediately give you the next quest to Anachronos.

This one counts for the Loremaster archievement.

This is the Scepter of the Shifting Sands quest chain as ported from wowwiki, with wowhead links added for ease of use. Full credit goes to original author(s).

Notes

This epic vanilla WoW quest chain no longer exists. May it rest in peace.

Because I don't see it anywhere else, this can be completed in a raid group. The fragments will drop.

Thinking about something else and had this quest title in front of me caught my eye and made me realize this has to be a Pulp Fiction reference -- I can't believe it didn't jump out at me right away :-)

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyrannies of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee." ~ Jules

Anyone else noticing a problem with stacking these? I have a stack of 132 and two stacks of 20--and I'm only getting credit for the ones in the "big" stack. It seems random as to whether new drops go into the big stack or the side stacks--and yes, I have the token in my bag.

I am friendly with the Brood and Baristolth won't give me the quest "Anachronos" after I completed "The Path of the Righteous"

Comment by Nitrolord

Q: Im already friendly with Nozdormu and im going back to do this chain, do i have to do this part first or is the next part avalable at anachronos?

|EDIT|

I decided to do the quest anyways and see what happens.....before i turn it in ill check at anachronos to see if he has the next quest for me in the chain.

|EDIT|

A: Anachronos does not have the quest so you have to at least complete this the first time to access the rest of the chain.

Comment by bethmetal

For those looking to grind Brood rep to neutral to open the scepter questline, it took me roughly 6 hours to farm all the carapaces at level 80. That is not including 1 AQ40 clear and 1 AQ quest item turn-in.

Comment by QFred

I turned in the Broodlord's Head as revered with the Brood and exalted with the Circle. I confirm you still need to gather 200 Fragments, but I'm not sure if once you deliver you can go to the next step. I assume so, because this is a reputation triggered repeatable.

Description

The Brood of Nozdormu are naturally distrusting of the lesser races. While it is true that you have proven to me that you have the potential makings of a hero, the time has come to prove this to my master.

Hive'Ashi, Hive'Zora, Hive'Regal: All swarming with activity and all a threat to our existence. Slay silithid at these hives and take from them a fragment of their carapace. When you can carry no more, return to me and I shall strengthen your resolve.
